An evening between laughter, astonishment, and fine literary malice
When two of the most prominent German artists share the stage, the word comedy atmosphere immediately takes on an elegant tone. With Comedy! – Iris Berben meets Anke Engelke, the audience at the Stadttheater Fürth can expect a reading that oscillates between comedy and curiosity, remaining elegant while hitting the laughter experience right in the middle.
When comedy suddenly has depth
Iris Berben and Anke Engelke take the stage together for the first time in Fürth, reading texts that sharpen the view on the humorous. Between Voltaire, Monty Python, Werner Finck, David Foster Wallace, Favell Lee Mortimer, and Friederike Kempner, an evening emerges that doesn't just fire off punchlines but skillfully builds them with timing and stage presence. That’s exactly where the charm lies: The audience experiences cabaret feelings without templates, literature without dust, and humor without a safety net.
A duo with attitude and the best kind of attitude damage
Iris Berben brings her vast stage and film experience, along with the calm of an artist who knows how to carry sentences. Anke Engelke counters with comedic instinct, precise interaction, and a feel for the moment when a quiet twitch in the audience turns into an explosion. Together, they create a dynamic that doesn’t rely on slapstick but rather on delicate shifts between cheerfulness and strangeness.
